Short DIY tutorial on changing the spark plugs on E60 BMW 530i 2009 N53 motor.
All you need is 13mm socket, T20 bit, 14mm 12-point socket, torque wrench, regular wrench with extensions, 6 new plugs and about an hour or two of your time.
As for the spark plug socket, it´s a special 12-point 14mm socket with thin wall. I still couldn´t fit it into the spark plug wells. So I had to grind the socket to make it thinner. RIDICULOUS !!!
As for new spark plugs, I went with BMW recommended NGK plugs. The torque spec is 23Nm.
I do NOT use grease on spark plugs threads, and this is why:
"NGK does not recommend the application of lubricant such as copper grease to spark plug threads as the result is a reduction of frictional forces at the thread faces. This will render the torque readings inaccurate and over tightening could occur by up to 20 percent!"
As I am not professional mechanic, this video shows how I do it, not necessarily how it should be done. Do this at your own risk.
I will be happy for constructive suggestions and advices.
Have a great day, guys.
